#116 "Come, Follow Me"

I learned this hymn in primary as a child.  One phrase always confused me.  I didn't know what a "salone" was--you know, the phrase that I thought went like this:  "For the salone can we be one".  Of course, the real words are: "For thus alone can we be one with God's own loved, begotten Son."  I also remember that my first church calling was that of "Junior Primary Music Director" in the old Monterey Park Ward.  I was just 16-years old at the time.  Primary was held on a weekday after school.  Ours was held on Tuesdays at 4:00 p.m.  Tami Mayer, who is a couple of years younger than I am, was the primary pianist.  She and I would walk to the local "Frosty Freeze" and get a "soft serve" cone after opening exercises (when the children went to their primary classes).  Leading the music in primary has always been my favorite calling.
